omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

When I think nuke, I think of the line from Burnout Revenge "Blow It Up! Blow It Up!" and smirk, because Pete has the power to nuke in this game, and Pete never seems to get to "blow it up" in Burnout Revenge, hence the phrase "Oh, you pulled a Pete".

(ducks n covers from wrath of Pete)

As someone who just survived a highly irradiated, Cylon-infested planet and arrived back in the company of a known Cylon I recommend you zip it, smart-arse.

Are we waiting on me? I hope not. What's going on? I think I ate too many of those damn Mentos.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

We're waiting on Starbuck to take her turn. I haven't seen Sean around b.org over the last day, so I figure he's a bit snowed under and hasn't had time to check his email.

Starbuck is sulking because Apollo took ALL the vipers out, dinged them up and now there's none left for her.

Actually Starbuck could head to Weapons Control leaving Chief to start repairing Vipers.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

She could, and potentially stopping the basestar from generating even more raiders would be useful, but it doesn't help with the likely immediate problem of myself and potentially the civies behind me being fired on nine times.

If it makes you feel any better, I promise that I'll only fire at any given civvie once.

Yeah, you're right. An XO for you is the best option.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Yep, Sean is quite buried at work.
